Highlights from the High Point Furniture Market

Known amongst design insiders simply as “Market,” the High Point Furniture Market held each October and June in High Point, North Carolina is design mecca for anyone who makes their living in the furniture and design trade. 

Held in the furniture manufacturing capital of America, the Editor-in-chief of House Beautiful (America’s oldest publication), Sophie Donelson, describes the 11 million square-foot showcase as, “the most concentrated moment of what’s new, trends, colors, profiles, what are people going to be talking about, what we should be paying attention to.”
